Welcome back to the next episode of our avalanche season preview from your folks over at DNVR.

0:08.0

We're talking defense for the avalanche on today's video.

0:13.0

You guys know the guys at the top. We'll get to them.

0:15.0

I want to start at the bottom here.

0:18.0

And at this point, now keep in mind we're recording this a week before the season, so we'll

0:22.4

see how it does pan out.

0:23.7

But at this moment, Brad Hunt, you're number seven right now?

1:10.6

No, but what I do mean is there is a stability and a familiarity and a constant in what Brad

too early in the season. And I do hope that
